Definitions
- the invention relates to a tarpaulin comprising a woven basic fabric made water-proof, and several fastening means for fastening the tarpaulin to a transport means.
- Tarpaulins of this type are used widely during transport to protect the load against rain and snow or other disadvantageous environmental or weather effects.
- Tarpaulins are usually made of woven and/or laminated polyethene or polypropylene. They usually comprise cords or the like means for binding the tarpaulin to the transport means and for tightening it over the load.
- Prior art tarpaulins are not alone able to keep the load in position during transport, because they are easily torn under the influence of the weight of the load when a ship sways or when a lorry brakes suddenly, for instance.
- a load should be fastened so as to withstand forces of 1 G in every direction in transport by sea and forces of 1 G in the forward direction and forces of 0.5 G in the backward or any other direction in transport by land.
- the load has to be fastened separately by means of various irons and chains, which requires several workmen at the different transport stages and is many cases also machines for displacing heavy irons and chains.
- the load fastening means are difficult to detach at the receiving end.
- the fastening means are not usually returned by the receiver, which increases the cost of transport.
- the fastening chains may damage the load, e.g., tear down paper rolls.
- the object of the present invention is to eliminate the above problems and disadvantages.
- a tarpaulin of the type described in the preamble which according to the invention is characterized in that the warp yarns of the basic fabric are multifilament yarns, and that areas woven mainly with flat-film yarns as weft yarns and reinforced areas woven with multifilament weft yarns having a greater thickness and tensile strength than the warp yarns alternate in the basic fabric in the warp direction, the fastening means being attached to the reinforced areas of the basic fabric.
- the tarpaulin according to the invention is sufficiently durable to be used both for the packing and protection of the load as well as for the fastening of the load so as to comply with the above-mentioned regulations. No other fastening means are needed.
- the use of thick multifilament weft yarns increases remarkably the weight of the tarpaulin.
- thick multifilament yarns are used only in relatively narrow zones while flat-film yarn is used in the zones between them, the tarpaulin is sufficiently light to be handled by a single workman who is able to cover the load easily and rapidly with resultant savings in labour costs.
- the use of relatively narrow reinforced areas reduces the cost of manufacture of the tarpaulin and, as a consequence, its price, because thick multifilament yarn is considerably more expensive than flat-film yarn.
- the cost of manufacture is largely dependent on the time spent on weaving.
- the solution according to the invention thus provides a tarpaulin which withstands high loads while the weight and price of the tarpaulin are optimized.
- Figure 1 shows a specific tarpaulin according to the invention.
- the tarpaulin 1 comprises a woven basic fabric 2 of desired shape, in this particular case rectangular.
- the warp yarns extend in the horizontal direction and the weft yarns in the vertical direction.
- the warp yarns of the basic fabric are multifilament yarns preferably thinner than those used as weft yarns in the reinforced areas.
- the warp yarn should, however, have sufficient tensile strength to prevent longitudinal stretching or tearing of the tarpaulin.
- multifilament yarn refers to synthetic fibre yarn comprising at least several tens of filaments, preferably hundreds of filaments. Yarns manufactured by the multifilament technique are well known in the art. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the multifilament yarns are made of polypropylene or polyester. Other suitable material can be used as well.
- the flat-film yarn used as weft yarn is also well known in the art.
- the flat-film yarn is made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) but other suitable materials can be used as well.
- HDPE high-density polyethylene
- part of the flat-film yarns used as weft yarns in these areas can be replaced with, e.g., multifilament yarns of the same thickness as the warp yarn.
- every forth flat-film yarn may be replaced with a multifilament yarn.
- the basic fabric 2 is not usually fully water-proof as such but it has to be treated to obtain good water-proof properties.
- the basic fabric 2 is coated with a tough, weather-proof and water-proof plastic film.
- the reinforced areas 4 are usually substantially narrower than the unreinforced areas 3.
- the spacing between the reinforced areas depends mainly on the position and number of the fastening points in the transport means.
- a container bottom or platform typically comprises fastening points at intervals of 80 to 120 cm.
- a tarpaulin suited for such a container platform may comprise a corresponding number of reinforced areas having a width of about 10 to 30 cm.
- the width, number and spacing of the reinforced areas may vary considerably in different applications.
- a fastening band 5 for fastening the tarpaulin to the transport means is attached to or close to one end of each reinforced area 4 by stitching or in some other way.
- each fastening band 5 forms a loop, whereby its both ends are attached to the reinforced area 4 of the tarpaulin 1. This facilitates the fastening and tightening of the tarpaulin as another fastening band can be passed through the fastening band loop 5 and fastened to the transport means and tightened in a suitable manner.
- this additional fastening band can be cut off while the fastening band loop 5 attached to the tarpaulin 1 remains undamaged so that the tarpaulin can be reused if required.
- the fastening bands 5 are attached to the basic fabric 2 on all sides by means of a triangular fastening piece 6 woven of multifilament yarns, for instance.
- the triangular piece 6 of woven fabric is stitched onto the basic fabric 2 in such a manner that one of its sides extends in parallel with the weft yarns of the basic fabric 2, and the warp and weft yarns of the piece 6 of fabric are substantially parallel with the other two sides of the piece 6 of fabric.
- Both ends of the fastening band loop 5 are stitched onto the triangular piece 6 of fabric, preferably onto a point opposite to the first-mentioned side, whereby the point load exerted by the fastening band loop 5 is transferred via the triangular piece 6 over a wider area within the tarpaulin and does not cause stretching of the tarpaulin in the longitudinal direction.
- the triangular piece 6 is dimensioned so as to correspond to the strength of the basic fabric. If the tensile strength of the reinforced areas is three times that of the basic fabric 2, the length of the side of the triangle 6 may be three times the width of the reinforced area 4.
- the length of the side of the triangular piece is preferably about 40 to 70 cm.
- a very durable triangular piece 6 of fabric is achieved by bending a square piece of fabric into triangular shape in such a manner that the warp and weft yarns of the piece 6 of fabric are diagonally positioned as described above.
- the basic fabric of the tarpaulin is dimensioned so as to cover the top of the load while skirt portions of a lighter water-proof weather protection material are attached by stitching or in some other way to the edges of the basic fabric so that the size of the tarpaulin is increased to such an extent that the lower part of the load will be covered as well. In this way the weight and the cost of manufacture of the tarpaulin can be further reduced.
